The pic is real blurry, but it does look alot like my albino sonoran gophers. Got any other pics? How keeled are the scales? Pituophis have strongly keeled scales, and corns have weakly keeled scales. Also, is the anal plate single or devided? Bulls and gophers are single/corns and rats are devided. That should give you a good idea of what genes are most prevalent. Let us know what you have.-Smokey

I don't think it is a hybrid. Looks like a pure gopher to me. Andy
